▶ Console Redirection Settings (Serial port for Out-of-Band Management/
Windows Emergency Management Services)
▶ Out-of-Band Mgmt Port
Microsoft Windows Emergency Management Services (EMS) allows for
remote management of a Windows Server OS through a serial port.
▶ Terminal Type
VT-UTF8 is the preferred terminal type for out-of-band management. The
next best choice is VT100+ and then VT100.
▶ Bits per second
This setting selects serial port transmission speed. The speed must be
matched on the other side. Long or noisy lines may require lower speeds.
▶ Flow Control
Flow control can prevent data loss from buffer overflow. When sending
data, if the receiving buffers are full, a 'stop' signal can be sent to stop the
data flow. Once the buffers are empty, a 'start' signal can be sent to re-start
the flow. Hardware flow control uses two wires to send start/stop signals.
